Boston, Massachusetts in 2011 – the Emmanuel Church (Lutheran)

In 2011 my church choir made a concert cruise from Montreal, Quebec to Boston, Massachusetts. I drove to Montreal from Dallas, Texas, took the cruise, visited relatives in the Boston area, took the bus back to Montreal, and drove home—an auto trip of 38 days (including the 7-day cruise). While in the Boston area I visited several sites—I’ve posted sets on the Aquarium and the U. S. Constitution. Our concert in Boston was at the Emmanuel Church (Lutheran). Here are some photos of that church. The concert was sung in the Chapel, but I am including a few shots of the Sanctuary.

The concert cruise is the middle Collection.

Thank you for the nice comment.

Joe, thank you very much for the nice comment, and the 3 thumbs up! I'm pleased you like them. (I think windows may be my specialty.)

Mike, nice to see you! Thanks a lot. I'm glad you liked it. (I keep finding churches I haven't covered yet.)

Thank you so much! I've had the privilege of singing in many impressive churches over the years. My church choir makes a trip every 3 or 4 years, and the secular chorus I used to sing with did the same. Wonderful experiences.

yssirk123, thank you very much! I'm glad you liked them.

Jay, thanks for the thumbs up! Always nice to see you.

classic320, it is a beautiful church. You're welcome--I like to share. (I often get photos of a lovely church exterior but for various reasons do not get inside--to my great regret.)

Earnest, thanks a lot! Happy you liked it.
